For a lot of people this can be extremely overwhelming given all the information in this video, so what I recommend is to just watch at least one section of this video a day until you have finished the whole video, then, repeat at least 3 times. It will probably seem boring and repetitive but trusty me all the information in this video is going to subconsciously be transferred into your brain without you knowing it. It is truly the best way to learn a great deal of info. Good luck :D
Great tip, especially mentioning to watch it 3 times :) I myself say I understand more the second time around but wouldn't have thought to do it here! Great help + comment.
This is far and away the best introduction to audio production that I've been able to find on RUclips or anywhere else. Extremely helpful for newcomers like me. I recently got the use of a Sound Devices MixPre-6 and have found myself feeling lost while watching Curtis Judd's excellent (paid) introductory course. This excellent basic tutorial will help greatly.
Agreed! I've taken a few courses in audio technology and engineering, and I'd say he really explained this content well. There were a lot of moments where I was like "Ooooh! I finally get it!"
I don't think it matters alot datawise with todays gear wether you choose 16 or 24bit. But you should point out that the typical signal to noisefloor obtainable today by most gear is about 70db wich makes 16bit's 65k levels more than enough for the human ear. You could technically get away with 48khz 12bit and you wouldn't be able to hear the difference between 48khz 16bit or 24bit if your gains is set for optimal s/n ratio. our ears is just not that "fine tuned" for level changes. 12 bit covers 4096 levels wich should be enough to cover -50db wich is about where a young human starts to being able to hear background noise. So if you record a signal at -10db, your ear can't distinguish noise at -60db or lower.
I'm a Sound Production student at a university, and I just watched this video to see if there's anything I didn't know about. Turns out there's a lot more than I actually knew. What a great lesson. Liked and subscribed!
Total new kid to sound recording and production - this video is brilliant, making the subject so clear and simple without being simplistic. Thanks so much for this!
Spent a lot of years on the radio. Those who experienced broadcasting back in the day will know what I mean when I say I was great "with a razor blade and a grease pencil." Radio days have been gone a while. Professional photographer now missing his radio days. Gotta get back to audio production. Got the equipment and now have to learn from scratch. Dave has been the best tutorial instructor I've found. Thanks...I'll be back!
Great Job - Envato: Take Notes ! Create a go to book of knowledge you can reference anytime - Envato, has nailed Recording 101 down. I like the way he cuts to the chase and dishes it out.
Thank you sir. I have been recording and making music since 1993. Thank you for you clearing up all those questions I still had. You rock sir!! Thank you again!
This is the kind of tutorial you really need to watch before make any investment. Usually, the info you get around is more about brands and theirs spectacular specs, but that approach use to be confusing, a waste of time and money rather than useful. What you explain instead is the key thing: what actually these things are about, options you have and their proper use in any situation or need. Thank you so much Dave!.
I'm an old Studio rat. I checkout basic audio Production videos to see if I forgotten or skipped over anything. Three things happened, I learned new information, reinforced old information, and corrected some mistakes that have crept into my production over the years. Great video!
I teach audio, as an Audio engineer in small groups. This is an absolutely wonderful tool. Thanks a lot for live demo. It no more sounds theoritical.. i am learning..
Yo, I've been in the stagehand/audio world for many years and I never went to audio school. Ive run countless bands throughout my experience, content like this is just incredible for somebody like myself and I thank you a million. What a time to be alive lol, hopefully they never invent a robot with ears.
This is an absolutely amazing and exhaustive guide! I've learned SO MUCH from this video. I definitely didn't expect this to have so much substance! I will have to watch this multiple times before I'm able to digest this in its entirety. Thank you for this full-course knowledge meal 😁😎🙌🙌🙌
I’ve done a degree in music which taught me nothing and I mean nothing about music tech. All theory and scoring by Sibelius, that was the closest we got to tech. I’ve always felt like music tech was a huge hole in my knowledge and as an aspiring voice over artist it’s been a source of great shame. Your video has made this whole world so much more approachable. I feel like I’m starting to understand the physics of music and how signal works so that when I go to record an audiobook i know what to do to get the best sound. Will definitely be subscribing, thank you! Xx
I'm way beyond this video, just happened to pop up in autoplay, still stayed for the amazing quality and well laid out course anyone could understand.. Well done!
Been doing music more seriously for 2 years and decided to freshen up on some learning. This information is invaluable. Thank you for taking the time. Also been wanting to do reaper. I primarily use ableton. Great bonus to see the daw workspace.
Very well done. 👍 Just in case this hasn’t already been pointed out, it appears the narrative around 22:30 is incorrect. After testing the directional mic, the proximity effect and increased bass response is noticeable. However, your comment “[paraphrased] you should have heard the bass increase as I got closer” occurs only after testing the *omnidirectional* mic, which I don’t think exhibited that response. A simple edit, swapping out that line to follow the previous clip might clear up the issue and prevent any confusion. But I could be wrong or missing something. Cheers & thanks for the great instruction.
Found this video on accident but this is by far one of the most informative and detailed videos I’ve seen in a long time..very excellent presentation. 👍🏾👍🏾
This is incredibly helpful. I am a complete beginner, but I learn quickly, and I was having trouble finding a tutorial for recording that wasn't starting with the assumption that you had some experience, or was going so slowly that I can't maintain focus. The examples provided are so helpful, and this video seems to be the next thing to an expert sitting down with you and teaching you in person.
I have been searching for something like this for months, and the only thing I can focus on is the mouth squishes?! Outstanding information very neatly delivered. A little post would’ve helped tremendously, but I’m giving a hard time. Thank you for this
Ive been makin music for 40 years.. and I have to say.. You really know your shit! Great info and in great detail!! I know this video is older.. but keep it up!
I took pages of notes during this video. Thank you so much!!! U should monetize, cuz I would've watched every ad, u deserve to get paid! Great intro course! Thank you!
This is such a kick-ass tutorial for anyone who wants to understand their music setups, I understood about half but after I watch this about 100 more times I'm hoping this will sink in. I can't thank you enough for this food for thought. Great tutorial. Thank you! PS. Also subscribed.
Hi there, great video on these subjects. I have just gotten a Novation circuit rhythm groovebox sampler. Its a great product and it's also portable and also runs on batteries. Yes it also has connection to outlet to recharge the batteries or use it while connected to a power outlet. My concern with this product is that if i want to use it with just the headphones, it is too low of volume even if the volume knob is all the way up. My hearing is not all that great. I have a hearing loss since birth. Still can hear a little bit through the headphones. but no issues when using the headphones on other devices such as my audio interface, and iphone. Its just that the Novation circuit rhythm device has low volume power. unless i connect the Novation Circuit rhythm to an amp or audio interface and connect my headphones on the audio interface and i'd be fine. But there times when i want to hear the sounds coming out of the circuit rhythm since it doesnt have speakers. The circuit rhythm has outputs 1/4 ts jacks on the rear of the unit. I have and still use it to this day a Digi 003 rack mount audio interface by digidesign. Still works for me. Only issue I have wth the digi 003 is that it now makes this static noise when i turn the buttons up or down. What cables should i use to connect the outputs of the circuit rhythm to an amp source in order to hear the sounds of the circuit rhythm? should I connect it to my audio interface? please let me know. Thank you.
Only of this came out before I went to NEiA. You taught everything in 1 hour that the "professors" would stop every ten minutes to tell their corny 33 minute music industry jokes. Though I do know of all that you've taught here. Just refreshing the brain on a few things before I step back into the audio spectrum (pun intended). Ultimately? I want to run my own small studio.
Please do tell people about Phantom power and not to be switched on in case of a powered mic. I recently fried my Azden shotgun mic and Zoom H5 XLR ports.
WOW! Such great detail and clear teaching. I'm so glad I found this video and I feel ready to start moving forward with my audio career now. Thank You!!!
some audio interfaces do come with built-in preamps though. for example, the Focusrite scarlet series. so I think for newbies it could possibly be easier and more cost-effective to purchase one like that over buying both a separate audio interface and preamp.
Thanks so much Dave that was explained so clearly I learnt a lot I look forward to future videos I have a nine-year-old niece who composes her own music on both guitar and piano so far , she is amazing , so I thought I’d set up the recording studio. I had previous experience as DJ and hanging around musicians you’ve just made a little bit more clearer what I’m doing. Appreciate your clear and concise teaching. Mike J
Got here by accident but i stayed for the long haul and it was well worth my time. I've saved the video and subscribed. Thanks So much , keep up the great work.
What a great class on sound recording.. I have always enjoyed having a sound tech when I worked but on my own later I realize what an art it is to record well.. I am struggling now to get a feel for DAW recording and using my 24 track as an interface device.. I paid some attention to my sound guys and watched from time to time but that doesn't make me much more qualified to engineer sound than him watching me play guitars and sing qualifies him to play on this side of the desk.. I need fundamentals and basic methodology..
Thank you. This is a wonderful video for newbies. I have listened to many hours of RUclips and read lots of websites and you've really cut through all the jargon and made things easy to understand, providing layers of information to boost newcomers from basic definitions to required depth of info to get going. Great job!
Excellent store of information to learn about audio/ sound ... Anyone who is a beginner or going to start the way I have done few days ago, this is the place ...you have really delivered an excellent tutorial. I may say thanks million times will still be less. I am going to view it few times now in the coming weeks
Excellent video but I'm rubbish at the final hurdle. I need help with the final mixing and EQ side of things. My stuff always ends up sounding like a casio keyboard. It never sounds professional. Wheres your video on this bit?
What a fantastic production! Thankyou so much for clearly explaining the ins and outs of recording and the equipment used. And no stupid carry on attention seeking. So refreshing!
You make a fantastic teacher! This video was very easy to understand, kept me interested the entire time, was well structured, and full of knowledge. Thank you very much!
1:00:15 "This meter is showing how much signal is coming back through this channel." I find this confusing. The signal is being played back from the channel, yes? If so how is it coming back through the channel? (I'm sure I'm not clear on what is meant by "signal," and perhaps the same for "channel." Or I'm not understand something else pretty bacic.) 1:00:46 "Pushes up to zero dB." I would think zero dB is silence and anything above is sound (whether perceptible or not). I can see starting at a positive dB as a baseline, anything below the baseline is a reduction in dB, that is moving in the negative direction, but still above zero dB. 1:01:26 If the summation of tracks is too loud (or way, way, way too loud :-)) can't you just reduce the volume of each track so it's not too loud?
Excellent, professional presentation. Very grateful I stumbled across this. Most helpful in understanding the fundamentals and basic concepts. Great for beginners like me. Highly recommended. Thanks!
Does using a split connector lower the bit rate or sample rate if that's the correct use of the terms? Or rather does it weaken the signal if it's splitting it? I tried googling it but people are giving the wrong answer. It's only intuitive to me that splitting a signal means that the source has to double output to maintain the same level equally going both ways as it would have been gping one way. Correct?
Do you have more audio tuts on recording into your daw? Say .. like a project from start to end adding the tracks(audio-voice etc - basic effects and the like???
I have never seen someone teach a subject with such a crystal clear flow of information. Every word he spoke was totally understood!
Literally amazing
nice and clear 👌 Thank you
@@LadyPeter He does have a great editor. His name is Dave Bode. Haha!
Thatz the reason hez teaching it
Your teachers were ass that’s why

OH MY GOSH- I can't believe after so many years, I'm finally understanding all of this!
I done wrote a whole essay of notes and im only 30 mins in 😂 This is VERY valuable information. Thank you :)
Let me get the notes 🙏🏽
Kya mujhe ye notes hindi me bta sakte ho. Kyunki english me poor hu. Notes to mai khud bhi bna leti
Damn probably gonna do the same lol
Share the notes 🙏🏼
Do you mind sending me your notes plz.
Brilliant Tutorial - This takes a lot of work behind the scenes - Thank You

Hi Are u a Audio video engineer?
This Dude is a genius,
I'm an old Studio rat. I checkout basic audio Production videos to see if I forgotten or skipped over anything. Three things happened, I learned new information, reinforced old information, and corrected some mistakes that have crept into my production over the years. Great video!
I was really confused about my sound engineering ... And now am really happy to have your explanation video... Also added to subscribing 😍 thank you
WHAT AN UNDERRATED VIDEO. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE INFORMATION!
I teach audio, as an Audio engineer in small groups. This is an absolutely wonderful tool. Thanks a lot for live demo. It no more sounds theoritical.. i am learning..
Good job actually going into depth and showing us actual information, whereas most people just sit there yapping in their videos.
I am an on set sound recordist majorly in film and this video has helped me a lot I use a Zoom F8n and sound devices Mix-Pre6 mark 2
Yo, I've been in the stagehand/audio world for many years and I never went to audio school. Ive run countless bands throughout my experience, content like this is just incredible for somebody like myself and I thank you a million.

Anyone else find it satisfying to see the graph behind him display the audio visually
After a long run of search this is the most informative video course I have ever watched. Generous and detailed information.
Thanks
30 mins in, huge amount of notes and im burned out. Gonna have to come back to this tomorrow. This is amazing though, thanks!

This is great to hear! We want to make the information accessible to everyone!
They need to teach this in Highschools. I would have loved this.
This guy is legendary! I've learned so much about Adobe AE and Premier from his in-depth Envato Tuts tutorials. Now, I'm about to learn Audio.
The best basic technical tutorial on audio I have seen so far.
I have been searching for something like this for months, and the only thing I can focus on is the mouth squishes?! Outstanding information very neatly delivered. A little post would’ve helped tremendously, but I’m giving a hard time. Thank you for this
I must applaud you for your thorough demonstration and succinct production here. Excellent dude!
Great video. The cable twisting suggestion is spot on. My 50 foot power cables have been really messed up over the years.
He could explain this stuff to my 1st grade grandson! Thank you Sir!
Ive been makin music for 40 years.. and I have to say.. You really know your shit! Great info and in great detail!! I know this video is older.. but keep it up!
I attend Full Sail University and I've learned more in this vid than I have learned so far for my expensive ass degree! 🙃
I took pages of notes during this video. Thank you so much!!! U should monetize, cuz I would've watched every ad, u deserve to get paid! Great intro course! Thank you!
Wow, thank you!
Dude, you've got some serious talent as a musician as well as an instructor. Cheers man 🍻
I am preparing some pro audio subjects lecture online. But this video already contains everything so significant pieces of stuff!!! Great video clip!
Great to hear!
This is such a kick-ass tutorial for anyone who wants to understand their music setups, I understood about half but after I watch this about 100 more times I'm hoping this will sink in. I can't thank you enough for this food for thought. Great tutorial. Thank you! PS. Also subscribed.
Really good. Simple basics. Total clarity. Easy to understand.
Best audio recording course I've found. If this guy was teaching at a nearby University I would take his classes.
That phantom of the opera joke got dead😂 I’m minute 13 and I got hella notes down already, I’m learning so much thank you!

I’m only through the first section, and I’m already really pleased with this. Can’t wait to keep learning with this resource!!
Please do tell people about Phantom power and not to be switched on in case of a powered mic. I recently fried my Azden shotgun mic and Zoom H5 XLR ports.
So can't wait to get into it and bring my culture to the world of music 😊🇿🇦

More like most
Superb! Only 10 mins. Already many mysteries solved. I'm going to enjoy learning from you. Thank You
many thanks for the comprehensive introduction.
You are welcome!
Bless you for giving free knowledge! This really helped me to start my new hobby.
You are so welcome!
This is great for beginners or intermediates looking to tighten up their knowledge
you are a saint. I am showing this video to everyone that i work with from now on
This was the best introduction I have ever heard, really enjoyed every second of it. Thanks a bunch
Thanks so much Dave that was explained so clearly I learnt a lot I look forward to future videos I have a nine-year-old niece who composes her own music on both guitar and piano so far , she is amazing , so I thought I’d set up the recording studio. I had previous experience as DJ and hanging around musicians you’ve just made a little bit more clearer what I’m doing. Appreciate your clear and concise teaching. Mike J
Great video; love how effective you are at explaining these concepts!!!🙏🙏🙏
This is how every tutorial/course should be like!!! Thank you!!!
i would never have forgiven myself without leaving a comment and liking this video
best video so far on youtube about this course
Thanks for commenting! It is great to hear from people who found this course helpful!
best all-around Audio Production demo/video i have EVER seen !! awesome dude....very well done. greatly appreciated !!
Never subscribed a channel in a second. Finally i'm home😭. Thank you
Thank you, Dave, that was the best explanation I get so far
I watched this video without blinking!
Wow! I never knew that just one minute of basic 16-bit / 44.1kHz audio records 84 megabytes of data!! Thanks Envato Tuts+!
that's what happen when you have 16 channels
16 channels × 16 bits × 44100 / 8 × 60 seconds = 84 672 000 bytes every minute
Got here by accident but i stayed for the long haul and it was well worth my time. I've saved the video and subscribed. Thanks So much , keep up the great work.

Great job!
thank you this was awesome....but on that testing microphone I wasn't ready. Beware if you're using headphones lol
She wasn't reeeaaaadddddyyyy!
Awesome! Thanks pal, helped a lot. I'm keeping some notes on these lessons so I can review them later.
An organized presentation - very good production values
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is the best introduction I've seen
I use the MXL 991 too for acoustic guitar🙂

Thank you for going into such depth! Sure helpful
Been working in tv for years so great to see the mic tests and everything else is amazing thank you!
I love Peanut Butter & Jelly
Am about to take up media production and a 2nd degree in music production any best books or even the books for college for audio production 2?
1:00:15 "This meter is showing how much signal is coming back through this channel." I find this confusing. The signal is being played back from the channel, yes?
